A Sacrifice

So a thought that's been on my mind is rather crucial in my life. It's called sacrifice. I say this because for a while now I feel that I have been making so many sacrifices that I thought were either necessary or not. And whether they were or not, I did them without question. But after alot of thinking and coffee, I've not made as many sacrifices as I thought. The ones I have made, they were nothing compared to the ultimate sacrifice I was given; I'm talking about the sacrifice that God sent. God sent His only, pure, innocent, perfect son in order to save humanity from sin.
For example Lent, so many people have sacrificed something: not playing video games, chocolate, junk food, etc. We think we are doing something hard by fighting that temptation. That when the season is done we can just have it again. Something hard would be sending your own son to die for all the wrong of the rest of the world. I mean think of Abraham, he was going to sacrifice his son because he was doing what he was told. Parents think of your children. Would you willing let you your sons or daughters die for the wrong of others? Would you send your sons or daughters somewhere to die?

Bragging Rights, Daydreaming, Coffee or Tea, and my-not-so-romantic-movie line

Summer is nearly over. SDSU students should be coming back soon. Considering it has been so slow at work, when people are back, I won't have to worry about getting bored. I do hope that the school year goes by quickly. I will say one thing though, I'm going to miss Daniel like no other. That's right, Dan has one more year of school left. But then, he will quite hopefully have a job at a police station. So, pray for him. Just pray that he does exceptionally well this year (which I know he will) and then is able to get a job as a police officer just like he dreams. But like I said, I have the uttmost faith in him. I'm very proud of him. He is such a hard worker. Mr. and Mrs. Morell, if you two read this, I just want you to know how amazing and spectacular your son is. You should be very proud of him just like I am. Daniel, you are going to be an amazing police officer!

Have you ever been so bored that you just wandered aimlessly and just hung out by yourself. I'm currently sitting at Cottonwood Coffee by myself. Obviously writing a blog. :) I don't know why but I have so much energy. Oh, well. So adding to being by yourself, how many times in one day do you find yourself daydreaming. I have a tendency to do it everyday and more than once. Just randomly but not like during lunch rush at work when I need to be focusing. I'm not certain about you but I do enjoy my daydreams, a lot of the times I wish I could control when I do and when I think about it, I know I can but they seem to take over. But oh well.

So, while writing that last paragraph, I had a thought...which do you like better, coffee or tea? Also, Which tea do you like best? Black, white, red? Chammomile, jasmine, etc. Americano, cappuccino, espresso, etc. Why do you like it that way? The taste? Smell? Look? Does it calm you? Relax you? How often do you have it? As for me, my favourites are: dirty chai latte made with soy milk, chai tea, and cinnamon; also a hazelnut latte with soy milk. My favourite teas are jasmine and chai.

Now, time for some gushy stuff. Ladies, and possibly some gentleman who are great romantics...do you have a favourite romantic line from a movie that just makes your heart flutter when you hear it or that you would want to hear or have said to you? One line that I like but I wouldn't want said to me because it's not a Daniel original, it's from the movie Holes (I know, not the best movie in the world or a romantic one at that) when Kate Barlow is crying while reading a book, Sam comes in and does the line he's been saying, "I can fix that". Considering the way, Sam had been taking care of her, it was so very sweet. I don't know maybe I just think it's a lot sweeter than it should be or is.
